Great, thanks. Please wait for a new patch for AIX as well because I've
made a few changes to make it fit in better with the main trunk. I'll
resubmit the following 4 patches in more polished states, probably this
week.
* AIX compatibility
* color support (I'll recheck the change from 256 to 512 to see if it's
still needed)
* backfill on resize
* dynamic window colors
Also, what do you think about moving the definition of keytable[] to the
config.h file? The reason I ask is that I work in Cache and it requires
some specific escape sequence keyboard mappings that are different from
what most people would want. I have no problem going into madtty.c for
myself, but I was thinking that others may want to make their own
keyboard mappings as well. Please let me know what you think.
Thanks! -Ross
